Colorings of Plane Graphs Without Long Monochromatic Facial Paths
Let G be a plane graph. A facial path of G is a subpath of the boundary walk of a face of G. We prove that each plane graph admits a 3-coloring (a 2-coloring) such that every monochromatic facial path has at most 3 vertices (at most 4 vertices). These results are in a contrast with the results of Ch...
